Support recommended restarting the service to improve high memory usage caused by Veeam.Backup.CatalogDataService.exe.I would like to run PowerShell using Task Scheduler to periodically restart the service.To prevent job errors, I would like to output backup jobs and tape jobs when the running service is restarted, but I don't know how to do this.Get-VBRBackupSession | Where-Object {$_.Result -eq 'None'} seems to output running backup jobs, but I don't know how to output tape jobs.Please tell me the following:・ Is there a way to output appropriate running backup jobs other than those listed above?(Get-VBRBackupSession -Name $job does not work because it does not output when differences are being merged.)・ How can I output running tape jobs and GFS tape jobs?

This is the second time my Veeam 13 console cannot connect and shows the error below.The first time I faced this issue, I reinstalled VBR and it worked normally. However, now that I am facing it for the second time, I feel there might be a bug in this version.After checking the Veeam services, I found that there are three services that cannot start:Veeam Backup Server RESTful API Service Veeam Explorers Recovery Service Veeam Web ServiceHas anyone else experienced the same issue?   

Hi AllI’m currently assisting a client with a Veeam ONE deployment and they would like to send alarm notifications directly to Telegram in addition to the standard email alerts.Has anyone successfully implemented this type of integration? What method did you use? Was it done specifically with Veeam ONE or through Veeam Backup & Replication events? Has anyone tested or confirmed that it still works with Veeam 13? From what I have found it is possible, by default Veeam ONE natively supports email and SNMP notifications, with other integrations typically handled through scripts or external tools.I’m trying to confirm real-world experiences and any recommended approaches before implementing it for the client.Any guidance, scripts, or best-practice recommendations would be appreciated.

The error that I am getting is Outdated being agents, please upgrade or remove the following theme Agents from the production configuration. Shared-FS01 Veeam agent for windows 3.0.1.1039. And we got rid of that file share. But for some reason Veeam is still seeing it as a stale agent. I went back to the beam backup and replication console went to infrastructure physical. I found it an unmanaged, but it wouldn't allow me to delete it. So I tried creating a temp protection group. And the era I got was remote deployment and management is available for license agents only. Please change your backup service settings to allow manage agents to consume the license then perform a protection. Rescan. Then I went back to unmanaged and it disappeared.Sorry, I know to this whole Veeam thing. I have been tasked with it and I have very little experience with Veeam. Thanks.

Hello, Is there some Visio / Draw IO sample about common Veeam architecture ? I’m not “good” to create them and I guess there are some provided by veeam :)  Thanks for your help

OS is Linux Mint Mate 22.  Been running VAL v.6 successfully for some time, now looking to update to v.13.  File downloaded, only option seems to be .iso for which I use Balena Etcher.  BE says, problem with this file, and cannot continue.  Ran the download three times, BE tells me the same thing with each of the downloaded files.Previous Veeam downloads were .deb files, used for ubuntu/debian systems.  Could be there isn’t or won’t be such for v.13.  Anyone know whether v.12 is available?

I was running the Community Edition ver. 8.2.0.2202 on my Windows Server 2025 when a notice appeared to install the latest update for Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 8.3.    (Community Edition)I did that upgrade but it jacked up my system. I got an "Installation Failure" with no useful information in the log. After much searching, I found this https://forums.veeam.com/veeam-backup-for-microsoft-365-f47/unable-to-install-vbo365-on-a-fresh-windows-11-system-t101611.htmlI used some of the suggestions there and I finally got 8.3.0.2201 installed.But now I get the "No connection could be made b/c the target machine refused it." I briefly saw something about a installation issue with multi-homed servers, but I cannot find that page again. 

Hello. I have installed the newly released version 13 of the software appliance. I also have a Synology DS923+ NAS. Both devices are separate and are not added to any domain. Could you please advise me on the safest way to connect this NAS to the newly released appliance? I tried to connect to the SMB share, but I am getting Kerberos errors. I have version 12 installed on Windows Server, and the connection works there. Now I am testing the appliance and encountering connection problems. Thank you in advance for your help.

Dear Veeam team,I am trying to uninstall VBR 13 but get stuck the issue below. I have checked both services: Veeam Backup Update Service and Veeam Backup Service. There is no Veeam Backup Service anymore.Please advise me for this case 

I’m unable to connect VSPC to Cloud Connect. When I try to add the Cloud Connect server from Configuration → Catalog → Veeam Cloud Connect, it fails with “Failed to connect to the deployment service.” I’ve already tried disabling Windows Firewall and antivirus, but the issue persists. I can install the agent manually on the Cloud Connect server without any errors; however, after installation, the server only appears under Discovery in VSPC and does not show up under Catalog → Cloud Connect → Veeam Cloud Connect Integration. Both servers are on the same subnet with no firewall in between.  

Backup for vmsrv0 on hyper v host1 worked always before, but for hyper v host1 i forgot that i turned off vmsrv0 vm LOL, so veeam was backing up a turned off vm. I went into host1 and switched from vmsrv0 to vmsrv1 running the same/replica (OS-Suse Linux Enterprise 12), did not continue backup chain, i just created a new backup to drive. Now i get vmsrv1 Processing vmsrv1 Error: Error: The requested operation could not be completed due to a file system limitation Asynchronous request operation has failed.

I am using /api/query?type=’BackupJobSession’ to retrieve all backup job sessions. Does anybody know if this query will retrieve sessions for ‘Backup to Tape’ jobs as well? I don’t have the ability to setup such jobs in my lab and I can not test it. Alternatively is there a different query to retrieve sessions for such jobs? 

Hello. As part of our Physical Infrastructure in VB&R12, we have a Physical Windows Server that has storage attached by fibre channel. The Veeam agent is installed on this server and the service uses the Local System account. I am attempting a "Managed by agent" backup of this server, but when this runs, I get the error message "Volume G:\ does not exist" for files from the FC-attached storage. Outside of Veeam, I checked that the server's local SYSTEM account has access to G: and it could read the files there just fine. Why can't the backup job see that volume? Thank you.

Hello I have been working on Vault sizing for a customer, and I have seen that there is a significant space consumption difference between Azure Vault and AWS Vault, AWS having a large penalty on immutability overhead: with 83 TB VM to backup with 30 daylies, 30 days immutability, direct backup (no SOBR), 3% daily change rate, 10% yearly growth, 1 year horizon I get: Azure Vault: 105,9 TB 13,7TB immutability overheadAWS Vault: 133,3 TB 41,09 TB immutability overhead(which very surprising since it means 133-41=92TB actual data) Different storage rules in AWS or difference in the calculation in the sizer ?Thanks for your inputs !!

When I try to connect on Veeam B&R Console after upgrade to version 13 it returns following message“Failed to connect to the backup server: Access to the registry key ‘HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Veeam\Veeam Backup abd Replication\Plugins\13.0.0\Console’ is denied”I checked the registry and there is no values under 13.0.0\Console redistrib and 13.0.0\Platform Service, while under 12.0.0 I can see values like AWS, Azure, etc.Could plugins installation fail?Veeam B&R seems onlne, I can see backup job logs under 13 version.When I run the .iso (upgrade file VeeamBackupReplication_13.0.1.1071_20251217) it says Veeam is already updated and does not permit me do anything.

Hi all,Having major issues with the RAID controller on one of our production computer’s motherboards. I’m trying to test a non-RAID setup to see if that fixes all the crashes we’re experiencing. Are there any special considerations when restoring a backup that was set up on a RAID array to a newly setup non-RAID hard drive? Appreciate any help, thanks!

In my home lab I want to experiment with the new Veeam VBR v13 appliance. On one hand to try it out before migrating at the organization I work for, on the other hand because I love to try new things out and thinker with it. So I use the ISO deployment method to deploy on a virtual machine on Proxmox PVE, that is a supported scenario as I read in the documentation. I go through the installation procedure, slightly annoyed that I can’t select a keyboard layout and have to type a difficult password on the wrong layout, but I can manage that 😉. On my first attempt I’ve set a static IP and a simple hostname (not FQDN) and disabled IPv6. I’ve chosen not to create a security officer account, since it’s just me anyways. The option is there to skip, so I assume it’s supported. After completing the process, I can access the host management on port 10443 just fine using IP address or using the hostname(created a DNS record for it). However the normal webUI on port 443 is not responding, it just

 I am getting the environment prepped for upgrade to 13.One question i had is on the Windows agent…Should i upgrade them before or after upgrading to 13? Thanks! 

Hi teamI was tasked with creating a new repo in Azure and setting up new backup policies.I have created policy per service (Sharepoint, Teams, Onedrive, Mail)Services other than sharepoint have finally completed but sharepoint is not playing nice.It appears not to be progressing and been at it for nearly 7 days.Any idea what the issue could be? I have stopped all other backups for now but makes no difference.Any thoughts?  

ciao, il titolo è un po’ involuto ma non riuscivo a farlo migliore. Volevo condividere una difficoltà che mi trovo ad affrontare, specie adesso che “lavorare con Veeam” comporta interagire con tecnologie e mondi sempre più numerosi e diversi. Solo pochi anni fa c’era VMware e un po’ HyperV, il backup di O365 e poco altro… ora ci sono N nuovi hypervisor, tutte le parti cloud (M365, EntraID eccetera), i plugin enterprise con Oracle SAP etc etc, i DB come Mongo e Postgres e, ultimo ma non meno sconvolgente, il mondo container di Kasten.  In questo scenario, se lavori per aziende di consulenza e dici che sei uno specialista Veeam (e supponiamo che tu lo sia 😊), magari hai la VMCE, oggi i tuoi clienti/capi/colleghi si aspettano che tu sappia muoverti e soprattutto abbia esperienza su TUTTO. Mentre, per esempio, quando ho fatto la VMCE due anni fa i nastri non erano argomento di esame…  Nella realtà per conoscere le tecnologie e avere esperienza bisogna averle provate, il che comporta di av

how to avoid this step?  

Wie kann man einem Windows Agent Backup Job den Proxy anpassen, oder ändern?In einem VMWare Backup Job geht das ja recht einfach.In meinem Fall habe ich einen Fileserver Cluster (im HyperV) eingerichtet, diesen sichere ich nun.Leider ist hier die Backup Geschwindigkeit recht dürftig, weiß nicht, ob da ein Proxy helfen könnte.Wenn ja, wo stellt man den ein? DankeAndreas

I have a question. My current tape server has 4 SAS ports attached to my Quantum LTO-7 library. I can’t fit any more cards into this server, so that’s the max number of drives this one tape server will support.However, my tape library physically has *6* tape drives installed in it. Obviously, at the moment, only 4 are in use, as that’s all my tape server can handle. But I have a 2nd  tape server I can use, and it has 4 unused SAS ports. So what I want to do is, add this 2nd server to my Veeam environment as another tape server, and hook it up to my 2 used tape drives. That way, I should hopefully be able to drive all 6 tape drives at once., and Veeam will see the library as having 6 drives total. There should be no problem with that config, right? Veeam can utilize more than 1 tape server, surely. And since the drives are all in the same library, even if I have media pools that says use up to 2 drives at once,  it wouldn’t matter if one of those tapes was serviced by tape server #1, an

Hello,We have a backup copy job that offloads data to an S3 storage. We want to change the bucket used, but for a new backup copy job. The question is: if we deactivate the first backup copy job, will it retain the applied retention settings? Currently, we have a 15-day retention, with 7 days set as immutable.Veeam 12Thank you!
